Crossed Paths, Part II

[Thomas Hobbes]

"Augh!" Octar's shout briefly fills the room as he leaps, smoking, from the ball of flame. With another shout, this one of anger, he turns on the lizardman and advances, swinging his blade.

"You've sampled Roman gold- now try Roman iron, barbarian!"

What a croc! It's a roight big shelia, but I think we can get a bit closer. Oo! I got a hold of it! Now, crocs can bite down somethin' powerful, but if ya get their mouths shut, they have a hard time openin' im' again!

Now watch me put my head in it's mouth!

Sorry, couldn't resist.

Ehldannis takes up his bow and draws a bead on the Lizardman shaman, whispers a quick prayer to the gods, and releases.

 

[Krilith]

~Dhormium walks over to the big green croc, readying himself to smash his axe through the crocks big hide and smash it in two. It's almost as if i'm splitting wood again, the creature sure does look like a big log if you look at it at a certain angle, and thus Dhormium raises his axe above his head and swings it down with all his might, right down to the point where he thinks the creatures spinalcord lies.~

"GrrrmhhhfaaAH!!"

ooc: thanks for autopiloting manzanita. with the use of the 'feat of strenght (domain)' attack the croc, i believe i'll have strenght 18 for 1 round. giving me an extra +3 on attack and damage.

edit: ROTFLMAO thomas!!

 

[doghead]

For Roths sake! I need something you can get a bit of grunt behind. So now I need a longsword and handaxe. And some muscles. This fighter thing is a whole lot more complicated than Octar makes it like. I'm neither fish nor fowl. I wish I was back in my caravan.

Aghhrrrr!

Marcus attacks.

 

[Jarval]

For the moment ignoring the crocodile, Brioc runs full pelt at Gruk, yelling a bloodthirsty battle cry. Unfortunately, the effect is probably of this cry is probably somewhat lessened by the fact Brioc's the only one who speaks Gaelic...


(Attacking Gruk, trying to disrupt his spellcasting if at all possible.)

OoC: That's just too funny Thomas

 

[eoghanbt]

Tullius scrambles to his feet, now full-blown cursing in quite-plain Latin, shielding with his sword as he regains his footing before bringing the axe swinging in a full overhand chop down at the Croc...

Round 4 (con't)

I was also thinking of Steve Irwin during this encounter. My 4 yr old thinks he's simply the coolest, Batman excepted, of course.

Brioc charges at Gruk (which should perhaps provoke an AoA from the lizardman & the croc, but I think they're too distracted for to take advantage of it), and swings his scmitar, penetrating Gruk's shield and inflicting a viscious cut across his body. (19 pts)

Ehlannis moves around to the south of the crocodile, in order to get a clear shot at Gruk. By then Brioc has engaged him. None the less, Ehldannis carefully shoots off one of his barbed shafts, which shatters against the stone wall behind the combatants.

The crocodile moves with surprising agility despite its bulk, avoiding blows from Octar, the black wolf, and Dhormium. Tullius finally conects solid blows, striking the weak spots he's found, and opening bloody gashes on its sides. (17 pts).

The croc whips its tail at Dhormium, striking the dwarf a heavy blow across the face with its serated scales (19 pts dmg). The lizardman attacking Marcus can't seem to get a bead on the quick gypsy.

 

[Manzanita]

Round 5

Gruk hisses angrily at Brioc, "That weapon is cruel, cousin. I must destroy it!" He brings up his spiked club with terrible strenth, catching Brioc under the left arm, cracking his ribs (16 pts)

Don't forget Mendicus can speak Gaelic!

 

[Thomas Hobbes]

Last attack was actually on Gruk, but no worries since it missed anyway.

Octar glances over at Brioc, and steps to his aid as the druid takes a vicious blow to the ribs. He spins away from the crocodile and slashes at the lizardman shaman.

 

[Krilith]

~Thousands of bolts of lightning flash through his head as the pain overwhelm the stout man and painfully shakes his head to regain his senses.
NO!! acursed beast! at least logs used to lay still. Octar! don't leave us with this big lizard! no! perhaps..yes..it's worth the try!
Dhormium takes a step away from the melee and starts uttering words in dwarven~

ooc: take a 5-foot step away from the croc and not into the direction where gruk is standing, and cast enlarge person defensivly.
